Tawny Frogmouth at night[edit]

Original - The Tawny Frogmouth, Podargus strigoides, is an Australian variety of frogmouth. Frogmouths generally remain sitting very still on a low perch, and wait for food to come to them.
Edit 1 Cropped subject.
Reason
A good quality photo of the subject showing the plumage from side on which is good for identification purposes. Taken at night and a wild bird - best image on wiki of the species.

  • Support. Crop in original version is aesthetic, but should be fine. Oppose additionally cropped version (edit 1) - does not improve thumbnail zoom all that much, and takes away the aesthetics. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 19:49, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak support crop I actually find the head on flash lighting leaves the image lifeless and and flat. I do not understand the opposers to the crop, this is WP, not commons, the big black space to the right adds nothing to the enc value and here its regular for people to want images cropped to subject rather than trying to be artsy with composition.
